(Submitter supplied) Candida albicans, the most common cause of human fungal infections, undergoes a reversible morphological transition from yeast to pseudohyphal and hyphal filaments, which is required for virulence. For many years, the relationship between global gene expression patterns associated with determination of specific C. albicans morphologies has remained obscure. Using a strain that can be genetically manipulated to sequentially transition from yeast to pseudohyphae to hyphae in the absence of complex environmental cues and upstream signaling pathways, we demonstrate by whole-genome transcriptional profiling that genes associated with pseudohyphae represent a subset of those associated hyphae and are generally expressed at lower levels; interestingly, no genes appeared to be expressed exclusively in pseudohyphae. more...

(Submitter supplied) Candida albicans is a part of the normal microbiome of human mucosa and is able to thrive in a wide range of host environments. As an opportunistic pathogen, the virulence of C. albicans is tied to its ability to switch between yeast and hyphal morphologies in response to various environmental cues, one of which includes nutrient availability. Thus, metabolic flexibility plays an important role in the virulence of the pathogen. more...

(Submitter supplied) Sfl1p and Sfl2p are two homologous heat shock factor-type transcriptional regulators that antagonistically control morphogenesis in Candida albicans, while being required for full pathogenesis and virulence. To understand how Sfl1p and Sfl2p exert their function, we combined genome-wide location and expression analyses to reveal their transcriptional targets in vivo together with the associated changes of the C. more...

(Submitter supplied) The Regulation of Ace2 and Morphogenesis (RAM) pathway is an important regulatory network in the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans. The RAM pathway’s two most well-studied components, the NDR/Lats kinase Cbk1 and its putative substrate, the transcription factor Ace2, have a wide range of phenotypes and functions. It is not clear, however, which of these functions are specifically due to the phosphorylation of Ace2 by Cbk1. more...

(Submitter supplied) Candida albicans is a major human fungal pathogen that represents the fourth leading cause of hospital-acquired bloodstream infections in the U.S. and is associated with high mortality and/or morbidity rates in a wide variety of immunocompromised individuals, including cancer and AIDS patients. While the C. albicans morphological transition from yeast to filamentous cells is required for virulence, considerably little is known about translational mechanisms important for controlling this transition as well as other virulence-related processes in C. more...

(Submitter supplied) We investigated the roles of mitochondrial dynamics in hyphal growth of C. albicans using the small molecule inhibitor MDIVI-1. Strikingly, the small molecule inhibitor represses both the yeast-to hyphae transition and ongoing filamentation, and its effects on morphogenesis can be uncoupled from general growth inhibition. RNAseq experiments of inhibitor-treated cells coupled with Candida mutant analyses suggest the existence of a novel mechanism of action to represses hyphal growth. more...

(Submitter supplied) The dataset contains ChIP-Seq data of the Set3 and Hos2 proteins in Candida albicans, assayed in two morphological phases (yeast and hypha). The Set3 and Hos2 proteins in the respective strains carry 9myc epitopes and ChIP was performed with an anti-myc antibody. Included samples are the following: 1 input and 1 ChIP sample of an untagged wild type strain as negative control assayed in the yeast phase, 1 input and 3 ChIP biological replicates of the Set3-9myc strain in the yeast phase, 1 input and 2 ChIP biological replicates of the Set3-9myc strain in the hypha phase, 1 input and 2 ChIP biological replicates of the Hos2-9myc strain in the yeast phase, 1 input and 2 ChIP biological replicates of the Hos2-9myc strain in the hypha phase, 1 input and 3 ChIP biological replicates of Set3-9myc in a set1delta/delta background in the yeast phase.

(Submitter supplied) Morphogenetic transitions are prevalent in the fungal kingdom. For a leading human fungal pathogen, Candida albicans, the capacity to transition between yeast and filaments is key for virulence. For the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, filamentation enables nutrient acquisition. A recent functional genomic screen in S. cerevisiae identified Mfg1 as a regulator of morphogenesis that acts in complex with Flo8 and Mss11 to enable transcriptional responses crucial for filamentation. more...

(Submitter supplied) Transcriptional response of Candida dubliniensis during hypha formation and environmental change (temperature, pH, density and nutrients). Transcript profiling of C. dubliniensis identified a core shared transcriptional response with C. albicans during hypha formation and growth at alkaline pH. However, C. albicans expresses several unique hypha-specific genes, including ALS3, HYR1 and SAP4 and 5. Transcript profiling also revealed a novel role for NRG1 in regulating ferric reductases in C. more...

(Submitter supplied) The polymorphic yeast Candida albicans exists in blastospore and filamentous forms. The switch from one morphological state to the other coincides with the expression of virulence factors, which makes the yeast-to-hypha transition an attractive target for the development of new antifungal agents. Because an untapped therapeutic potential resides in small molecules that hinder C. albicans filamentation, we characterized the inhibitory effect of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on hyphal growth and addressed its mechanism of action. more...

(Submitter supplied) Ace2 transcription factor family genes are found in many fungal genomes and are required for regulation of expression of genes involved in cell separation. We used transcriptional profiling to identify the targets of Ace2 in Candida albicans, and we show that these include several cell wall components, such as glucanases and glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins. Expression is downregulated in ace2 deletion mutants in both yeast and hyphal cells. more...
